Thrill seekers jump off cliff despite death of young man

Despite the death of a young man less then 24 hours ago, thrill seekers continue to jump off cliffs at a popular spot in Perth.

Luseni Traore, 18, was with friends when he jumped into the river around 5pm Friday night.

9NEWS understands the man – from Dianella – landed perfectly in the water after jumping from cliffs at Blackwall Reach, surfaced, but then panicked.

He couldn’t be reached by friends, so they threw him a board to keep him afloat, but he began to sink.

Luseni was under water for at least six minutes before police arrived and pulled his body out.

He was given first aid by police before paramedics rushed to the scene, he was taken to Fiona Stanley Hospital but couldn’t be revived.

The teenager was in his first year at Curtin University and is being remembered as a kind, charming, hardworking and loving person by friends.

The drowning didn’t deter some people from jumping off the cliffs at the popular spot – some cliffs 10 metres high – less than 24 hours after the death.

Other people at Blackwall Reach hadn’t heard of the news on Saturday and proceeded not to jump.

Thrill seekers were back jumping at the cliff today.

"I kind of don’t want to do it again now, I kind of just think I’ve always been told to be careful. It’s dangerous but I thought its never that dangerous," 17-year-old Anna Armitage said.

Warnings of diving can be found at each of the jumping locations while Royal Life Saving WA is monitoring the popular location.

"People need to be aware that it is a high jump from those cliffs to the water and it can be dangerous, so people need to take this into consideration when they’re deciding on what activities to undertake," Royal Life Saving WA’s Lauren Nimmo said.

In January this year, a Taiwanese tourist travelling Australia died at the same jumping spot. He was pulled unconscious from the water and couldn’t be saved.
